  • Jacob Benmosche Lieberman
    Shabbat Shalom. Our Torah portion for this week is Parashat Vayishlach, in which we read about the journeys of our patriarch Jacob and his family after Jacob completes his service for Laban, his father-in-law. G-d commands Jacob to return to the home from which he fled many years before just after stealing his older brother Esau’s birthright as the first-born son of Isaac and Rebecca. Jacob and his family’s return will necessitate at the very least a meeting between Jacob and Esau, if not also a confrontation, since the two brothers had not seen each other since Jacob’s deception of their father robbed Esau of many privileges including the top spot in the family. Understandably, Jacob is afraid to face Esau and his anger. Jacob sends ahead a messenger to Esau to let him know of his return and learns that Esau is coming to meet him, along with 400 men. This exacerbates Jacob’s fear. He divides his family into two camps, with the hope that one will survive should Esau and the men attack. Bravely, Jacob plans to stand in front of his camp to lead them forward, but he doesn’t want to take it on the chin unless he absolutely has to. Before the brothers will meet, Jacob arranges for several messengers to greet Esau and appease him with many generous gifts. Jacob’s planning done for the big reunion ahead, he settles down to sleep for the night. In that sleep, what dreams may come. All night and near into the dawn, Jacob wrestles with a man who may just be an angel.

    Rosh Hashonah ראש־השנה 2013 / 5774 This High Holiday program was created by Boston Workmen’s Circle/Arbeter Ring 1762 Beacon Street Brookline, MA 02445-2124 617-566-6281 http://www.circleboston.org We gratefully thank countless sources and the many individuals who provided inspiring and thoughtful text, poems, art and music, contributing to this richly moving annual community event. 1 Sholom Aleykhem (Instrumental, followed by singing) Leshone Toyve. Welcome to the New Year, 5774. For thousands of years the Jewish people have celebrated the New Year with joy, hope, and thoughtful reflection. Today we are here to continue that tradition. The holidays of Rosh Hashonah and Yom Kippur provide time and space for self-examination and personal reflection. We are here to reflect on the year that has passed and open our hearts to the possibilities of the year to come. Today is a day of introspection and growth, of assessment and healing, of receptiveness and renewal. We evaluate and measure ourselves and our choices. We strive to take responsibility and to write our own destiny for the New Year. We ask: What has transpired this past year and what adjustments can we make to the next year individually, in our communities, and in the world? What do Rosh Hashonah and Yom Kippur mean to our community and to our families and ourselves? Today, we will consider these questions together, as a community. At this time, please turn and introduce yourself to someone sitting near you. If you are comfortable, join hands as we sing.

  • Shalom: Peace, Not Just Peace of Mind Parashat Ki Tetze Rabbi Daniel Cotzin Burg, Beth Am 9.6.14 ~ 11 Elul 5774
    Shalom: Peace, Not Just Peace of Mind Parashat Ki Tetze Rabbi Daniel Cotzin Burg, Beth Am 9.6.14 ~ 11 Elul 5774 This week I spent a day in Washington with thought-leaders, rabbis and policy analysts. We were speaking about Israel, America’s relationship with the Jewish state and the current deeply troubling state of affairs in the Middle East. The most surprising and powerful presentation of the day was that of Mosab Hassan Yousef, son of Sheikh Hassan Yousef, a founder and spiritual leader of Hamas. Given the events of this summer, it was particularly poignant to hear the heartfelt and courageous words of this young author and former Israeli asset (as he sat on the dais across from his Shin Bet handler). To even begin to conceive of such heroism, we almost have to transport ourselves into a different time – say Germany of the 1940s, when precious few righteous individuals resisted and acted against the scourge of Nazism. We might visit Rwanda or Cambodia, Darfur or America’s antebellum south. There are far too many examples in human history of pervasive, systematic violence and too few stories of those who made the hardest choices to turn against their fathers, brothers and their communities and attempt to salvage their dignity and humanity. Or perhaps we should roll the Torah back from its current location near the end, to a story near the very beginning whose hero, a simple man named Noah, is tzadik tamim haya b’dorotav, “a righteous man, blameless in his generation” (Gen. 6:9). I would argue it’s virtually impossible for us, most or all of us in this room, to know what it is like to live among the truly malevolent and depraved – a society so bad God sees no recourse but to erase it and start over.

    EJIW Encyclopedia of Jews in the Islamic World 5 volumes including index Executive Editor: Norman A.

Th e Encyclopedia aims to fi ll the gap in academic reference literature on the Jews of Muslims lands particularly in the late medieval, early modern and modern periods. Th e Encyclopedia is planned as a four-volume bound edition containing approximately 2,750 entries and 1.5 million words.

  • The Divine Courtroom in Comparative Perspective
    Book Reviews 167 his suggestion seems to be generally true, there are other statements from her suggesting that the Holy Spirit operates in various modes. He shows scenes, gives thoughts, provides explanations, revives the memory, suggests words, etc. Sometimes several modes operate simultaneously; at other times the Spirit only uses one mode (see, e.g., E. G. White, MS 31, 1889; idem, Letter 265, 1907; idem, Spiritual Gifts [Battle Creek, MI: Review & Herald, 1860], 2:292–93; idem, “Questions and Answers,” Review and Herald [Oct. 8, 1867], 260). Hence, Levterov’s distinction seems too static and absolute. Poking around in someone else’s work is always easier than making a substantial contribution oneself. Despite some minor flaws, Theodore Levterov’s book stands as a seminal contribution to Adventist scholarship and self-understanding. It provides deep insights into the early Seventh-day Adventist efforts and challenges in understanding Ellen White’s prophetic ministry, her role in the church, and the differences in scope and authority between her writings and the Bible as the ultimate rule of faith and practice. The historical development of the arguments illustrates how these challenges turned the attention of early Adventists to particular issues, provoking them to study and come to a better, more precise, and more realistic understanding of the prophetic gift. Levterov needs to be commended for his scholarly work, and his work is recommended to everyone interested in Ellen White studies or early Adventist studies.

  • Shabbat Prayer Book
    Welcoming Shabbat ,ca ,kce Beth Shir ShAlom Santa Monica, California Shabbat ,ca ,kce An artist is like God, but small. He can't see out of God’s creation, for it includes him. With the seas divided, all the animals named, and the sun and moon and stars set in their tracks, an artist spends his life not only wondering, but wanting to work like God with what he can command: his paints. He tries to copy God’s creations. He tries to shape beauty with his hand. He tries to make order out of nature. He tries to paint the thoughts and feelings in his mind. An artist is like God as God created him. Small, strong, and with limited days, his gift of breath is spent over his paintbox. Choosing and brushing his colors, he tries to make paint sing. — M.B.

Tradition teaches that this “service” is prayer. It is written, serving Him with all you heart and soul (Deut. 2:13), about which the Sages said, “What is service of the heart? Prayer.” The number of prayers is not fixed in the Torah, nor is their format, and neither the Torah prescribes a fixed time for prayer. Women and slaves are therefore obligated to pray, since it is a positive commandment without a fixed time. Rather, this commandment obligates each person to pray, supplicate, and praise the Holy One, blessed be He, to the best of his ability every day; to then request and plead for what he needs; and after that praise and thank God for all the He has showered on him.1” According to Maimonides, both men and women are obligated in the Mitsva of prayer.
